Description
Fungicide resistance is increasing across Australian grain-growing regions, making varietal selection a critical first step in disease management.
In this video, Dr Joshua Fanning and Melissa Cook explain how disease nurseries at Horsham are used to assess barley varieties for resistance to scald and other diseases, and how this work supports growers in making more informed decisions.
Key learnings:
Why varietal resistance is the foundation of disease management
How disease nurseries simulate high-pressure conditions
The role of crop rotation and fungicide strategies
The five AFREN principles for managing fungicide resistance
